According to the regime’s judiciary in the province, “Those executed, Ayoub Rigi and Massoud Gomshadzehi, were accused of waging war against God and spreading corruption on earth … and therefore sentenced to death,” the state-run daily Qods, reported today.
The clerical regime also hanged 13 other political prisoners on July 14 for the same charges.
The regime is trying to spread fear by these executions in the province in order to prevent people’s uprising. The mullahs are extremely worried about the situation due to people’s hatred toward the regime as a result of repression, discrimination and widespread poverty.
The Iranian Resistance calls on all human rights organizations to condemn executions in Iran. It also calls for referral of the regime’s human rights dossier to the UN Security Council to adopt measures to stop brutal suppression of people, arbitrary executions and systematic suppression of religious and ethnic minorities in Iran.
